Research
My primary research areas include computational neuroscience, mathematical statistics, data analysis, and deep learning. Currently, my work is focused on inferring connections in small to medium-sized neuronal network models, analyzing neural data recordings, developing novel generators for statistical distributions, devising estimation techniques for statistical distribution parameters, and exploring the integration of deep learning into neural network applications.
